Hoja de sierra de calar Bosch T 1018 AFP Precision for Metal-Sandwich bimetálica 25 cm

The Bosch T 1018 AFP Precision for Metal-Sandwich jigsaw blade is a bimetal (BIM) blade designed for precise, straight cutting of metal-sandwich panels. Its increased blade thickness and extra-long length ensure stability and allow cutting sandwich panels up to 160 mm thick while maintaining clean, accurate edges. The blade combines a hardened HSS tooth strip with a flexible carbon steel body to reduce breakage risk and provide the necessary balance of hardness and elasticity for metal-sandwich materials.

Advantages

The milled, wavy-set teeth and very fine 1.1 mm tooth pitch provide smooth, precise cuts in metal-sandwich panels. The bimetal construction (HSS teeth bonded to a carbon steel body) increases durability and resistance to breakage, while the thicker blade section prevents bending during long straight cuts. The 250 mm overall length and compatibility with T-shank jigsaws make it suitable for deep cuts and stable operation.

Suitable for

• Cutting metal-sandwich panels and composite sandwich boards
• Precise straight cuts in metal-faced panels
• Applications requiring extra reach or cutting depth up to 160 mm
• Use with jigsaws that have a T-shank clamping system

How to use

Install the Bosch T 1018 AFP Precision blade into a compatible jigsaw with a T-shank clamping system, ensuring the blade is secured according to the jigsaw manufacturer's instructions. Set the jigsaw for straight cutting and select an appropriate cutting speed for metal-faced sandwich panels. Guide the tool steadily along the cut line, applying consistent feed pressure to avoid deflection. For long straight cuts, support the workpiece to minimize vibration and ensure clean, accurate edges.

Recommendations

Use cutting fluid or coolant when appropriate to reduce heat buildup and extend blade life. Replace the blade if you notice loss of cutting quality or visible wear on the tooth strip. Ensure the jigsaw and workpiece are securely clamped for safe operation.
